Would be easier for Messi to score 1200 goals if he played in South America/MLS all his career.

 

 

Even though back then the Brasilian league was one of the best in the world? ;)

Nicky Butt was the best player at the WC in 2002. This is something Messi has never done, so Leo has a while to go before he's in the same bracket at the likes of Butty.

Since the flurry of activity last weekend, I can't think of a duller 7 days in our recent history. Literally fuck all has happened since last Saturday barring a potential leak of the third strip.

 

Bah, I hate summers with no international tournaments.

COSTA RICA star Dennis Marshall was last night killed in a car crash.

 

A female also died in the head-on collision with a truck on a mountain road near San Jose - his country's captial.

 

The tall centre-back was 25 and played for Danish club Aalborg.

 

He scored a header in Costa Rica's Gold Cup clash with Honduras on Saturday.

 

Costa Rica eventually lost 4-2 on penalties after the quarter-final finished 1-1 after extra time.

 

Marshall returned to Costa Rica following the match in the United States.

 

Don't know him like but R.I.P

:lol:

 

Makes Ashley look like a good thing.

 

It's almost as bizarre as when he released a statement calling the west coast media "monkeys" then left a banana sitting on each seat in the Tynecastle press box at their next game.

 

It's getting more bizarre by the second! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/13915721.stm :lol:

 

SFA to investigate Hearts tirade

Page last updated at 12:40 GMT, Saturday, 25 June 2011 13:40 UK

 

The Scottish Football Association is likely to examine an outburst from Hearts about external influences.

 

Hearts owner Vladimir Romanov has a history of eccentric rants.

 

The latest statement, attributed to the board of directors, says: "We have been fighting to shield the club from crooks, criminals and thieves.

 

"Stealing players, bad games, problems with the law - all of that on top of record SFA fines. Problems are just shifted to another level."

 

The statement was released shortly after the Edinburgh outfit had announced that they were standing by defender Craig Thomson following a club investigation into his conviction for "lewd, libidinous and indecent behaviour".

 

The 20-year-old full-back earlier this month pleaded guilty, was fined and placed on the sex offenders register in relation to his inappropriate conduct towards two under-age girls over the internet.

 

The statement added: "Every year Hearts fights to be in the top three, but even last season in the last 12 games of the season it was almost like someone replaced the team with a different one. Whose fault is that? Players? Manager's? Or it is mafia.

 

"Each year we are forced to fight against these maniacs harder and harder.

 

"We are standing in their way, not letting them manipulate the game of football in the way they want.

 

"As such they undermine us in every possible way they can."

 

Previous outbursts have landed Hearts in disciplinary trouble.

 

During the 2004-05 campaign, Hearts asked the SFA to investigate the "integrity of the decision" by officials to award a late penalty in a home loss to Rangers.

 

In October 2006, Hearts were fined £10,000 by the SFA for bringing the game into disrepute after further criticism of match officials.

 

And a £25,000 fine from the Scottish Premier League followed in February 2007 after accusations of the "buying off" of referees.

 

Earlier this month, Hearts were hit with a £100,000 penalty by the SFA's disciplinary committee for their poor on-field behaviour last season.

 

It is the seventh successive term that Hearts have been sanctioned and it is the highest-ever fine imposed on a club for indiscipline.

 

Hearts intend to contest the punishment, saying their disciplinary record has improved significantly.

 

The new judicial panel replaces the SFA's disciplinary committee and will be operational in time for the start of next season.
